Chapter 735: Chef Supreme’s Greeting Gift
Lin Yuan looked at the elderly man with a level gaze. The longer he looked, the more he felt that this elderly man was the male version of Auntie Zhang.
Rather, it was the male version of Auntie Zhang with a few added years.
Although Auntie Zhang had a different build from this elderly man, their features were the spitting image of each other.
There were many people in the Radiance Federation, and it was not strange for two people to look alike. If this resemblance was not intentional or a fake facade, the two of them could be related.
When Lin Yuan had just arrived at the Radiant Moon Palace, he heard what the elderly man said.
He had heard his Master mention the Spirit Savory Pig before, and he had also had a taste. In fact, he loved the taste.
From the words exchanged between the Moon Empress and the elderly man, Lin Yuan could tell who the elderly man was.
He was one of the three Class 5 Creation Masters in Radiance Federation—Chef Supreme.
However, Lin Yuan was curious. How were Chef Supreme and Auntie Zhang related?
Shortly after, Lin Yuan thought of Auntie Zhang’s Terror Rabbit that had been close to death.
It was because Morbius had recently awoken at that time that Lin Yuan was able to satisfy his curiosity by checking the Terror Rabbit’s information. It was only then that he had found out that there was more than what met the eye to Auntie Zhang.
Lin Yuan did not dwell on the relationship between Auntie Zhang and Chef Supreme.
Uncle Li would call Lin Yuan almost every other week.
When Chu Ci was around, Lin Yuan and her would talk to Uncle Li and Auntie Zhang for at least half an hour.
When Chu Ci was not around, Lin Yuan would talk to them himself.
Lin Yuan decided that the next time he talked to them, he would ask Auntie Zhang directly.
Lin Yuan had nothing to hide when it came to these two people who had watched him grow up.
When Chef Supreme saw Lin Yuan, he initially felt that Lin Yuan carried himself extremely well.
But when he saw Lin Yuan looking at him calmly, Chef Supreme peered at him a little longer.
It was only then that Chef Supreme felt that Lin Yuan seemed very significant.
Upon further contemplation, Chef Supreme shivered, and the air in the Radiant Moon Palace suddenly seemed slightly chilly.
Chef Supreme hastily looked away from Lin Yuan and shot the Moon Empress a look of embarrassment before thinking, When I go back, I have to teach that traitor a lesson! Thank God my first and second disciples basically ruined me after I accepted them. After I accepted my third disciple, I became so on edge that I decided never to accept disciples again.
Otherwise, if I had listened to my first disciple and gotten to know this young man, I might have decided to snatch him from the Moon Empress. If the Moon Empress found out, I’d be in trouble!
Given her character, she might decimate my Kitchen Fragrance Palace!
The Moon Empress turned her attention to Lin Yuan the moment she noticed him.
Hence, she did not notice the change in Chef Supreme’s expression.
When she saw Lin Yuan staring at Chef Supreme, the Moon Empress remembered that before accepting Lin Yuan as her disciple, she had seen the information about Lin Yuan that Mystic Moon had collected.
She immediately figured out what was going on.
However, this was Chef Supreme’s personal business, and it was not the Moon Empress’s place to inform Lin Yuan.
The Moon Empress noticed that Lin Yuan’s lips were a little dry and picked up the jade teapot from the table. She poured the spirit tea into the exquisite teacup on the table and handed it to Lin Yuan.
“Drink this Pine Needle He Lu tea and soothe your throat. As the seasons change from winter to spring, the weather is especially dry. You need to hydrate yourself more regularly,” said the Moon Empress.
Lin Yuan took the teacup from the Moon Empress, and she turned to say to Chef Supreme, “Chef Supreme, this is my disciple. He’s also my only disciple.”
Although Chef Supreme’s expression did not change, his heart skipped a beat.
He was extremely aware of her temperament and character. This was the woman who would smash a table without mercy at the Radiance Imperial Court.
Yet, she was so calm when it came to her disciple.
From the way the Moon Empress said that this was her only disciple, it was evidence of how much she cared about her disciple.
When top experts accepted disciples, they were definitely also accepting someone who could carry on their legacy.
Chef Supreme had accepted his second disciple after his first disciple because he had realized that his first disciple was never going to carry on his legacy.
Instead, his first disciple kept dragging Chef Supreme to learn more about his Creation Master theories.
As such, Chef Supreme had accepted his second disciple. However, his second disciple had discovered that he was not interested in Creation Master powers.
All he wanted was to cook, which was why he had established the Spirit Food Pavilion.
His third disciple fitted his requirements perfectly. Even though he kept Chef Supreme anxious all the time, he could deal with it.
However, the Moon Empress had decided to stop accepting disciples after just accepting one.
Clearly, she was very satisfied with the one she had.
When Chef Supreme remembered the Moon Empress’s suggestion at the last imperial court, the meaning made more sense than ever.
It was obvious that she was paving the way for her disciple and demonstrating her trust in him.
The road to being a Radiance Envoy had never been paved. It was a path that one had to forage through step by step using grit and ability.
All the Moon Empress did was to provide the latecomer Lin Yuan with a fair chance.
After the Moon Empress introduced Lin Yuan to Chef Supreme, she turned to say to Lin Yuan, “You’re going to the outskirts to train soon, and you haven’t met Chef Supreme yet. You should greet him properly now.”
Lin Yuan walked up to Chef Supreme and greeted him. “Humble greetings, Lord Chef Supreme.”
When Chef Supreme heard what Moon Empress said, his eyebrow started to twitch wildly.
Although she had been addressing Lin Yuan, Chef Supreme knew that she was actually directing her words at him.
She was hinting to Chef Supreme that Lin Yuan was going to train in the outskirts, so Chef Supreme should gift Lin Yuan with something that her disciple could use in the outskirts.
After Lin Yuan’s greeting, Chef Supreme waved his hand, and a small golden toad appeared in his hand.
“Since this is our first meeting, I’ll give you this item made of the Jewelled Cave Golden Toad’s stomach and skin.”
While he was talking, Chef Supreme thought about how his first disciple and daughter had asked him to accept Lin Yuan as his disciple. His gaze softened as he looked at Lin Yuan.
The Moon Empress, who was standing next to Lin Yuan, caught sight of Chef Supreme’s expression, and her calm expression shifted slightly.
Lin Yuan thanked Chef Supreme and accepted the small golden toad.
When Lin Yuan used True Data to check the small golden toad, a look of shock came over his face.
